Don't Try to Escape, My Wife!

"Mrs. Green, what is it?"

"We'd better keep it a secret. You can go ask Maia."

Nicole grinned as she took the two emeralds. She seemed to be so hooked that she even couldn't put them down.

"Mr. Jase, I'll take them."

"Just take them. I gift them to you."

"No. We agreed that we'll trade gifts."

Nicole smirked, amusement dancing in her eyes.

Seeing Nicole acting, Samuel couldn't help but grin as well. His gaze of affection was always fixed on Nicole.

Jase could tell that he was flattering them right.

Since Samuel doted on Nicole so much, he wouldn't have to worry about their cooperation anymore. These two emeralds paid off.

Jase was mentally rejoiced. He still remembered the treasure that Nicole left with Maia. Perhaps it was more valuable than these two emeralds. After all, Nicole, Samuel's wife, should take something equivalent.

Just as Jase was wondering what it was, Samuel asked, "Mr. Jase, I heard that you are a retired soldier as well."

"Yes. But I'm incomparable to you. You are of noble birth. And I started from scratch. Compared with you, my business is like a small trick."

Jase's words brought Samuel a faint smile.

"Don't mention it. We're the same. Mr. Jase, you know, my wife is fond of these stones. So, I hope we'll have a chance to collaborate. I heard we can gamble on stones here. Why not have fun together?"

Samuel's suggestion fit in exactly with Jase's wishes.

"Of course, but Mr. Green, you know, gambling on stones depends on luck. Especially now that there are few rough stones, whether you can succeed is not decided by money. You might have to be mentally prepared."

Jase stated, afraid that Samuel would be irked by failing to get emerald.

But Nicole replied with a smile, "Mr. Jase, you know, money is the only thing that we can't use up now. The oil fields in Eastern Europe can even support hundreds of people to live for decades. Even if we fail in gambling, so what? Just have fun."

She appeared to be a woman who wasted money as a hobby.

Jase took a quick glance at Samuel. But Samuel was still gazing at Nicole with full affection. He felt somewhat envious.

Sure enough, he who had wealth spoke louder than others.

"Mrs. Green, you are really straightforward."

"That's right. Compared with the treasure I left with Maia, the money spending on gambles is like a hair of a bull's back. Isn't that right, honey?"

Honey? Samuel felt even his spine was melting.

"Yes."

Blinking, he fixed his eyes on Nicole, wishing he could fill her.

Nicole hurried to avoid his gaze, then turned to Jase, "There's no time like the present. Mr. Jase, why don't we gamble on stones now?"

"Mr. Green...?"
